They can also pack and ship golf clubs, snowboards, luggage and more to avoid the hassle of hauling them through the airport.

Your One-Stop Holiday Hub: The UPS Store locations can help print holiday cards and newsletters in store, or customers can use seasonal templates available through The UPS Store online printing website. For added convenience and peace of mind, mailbox services at participating locations provide a secure place to receive holiday deliveries. With more than 5,600 locations nationwide, many The UPS Store locations accept packages from any carrier and will even send text alerts[iii] when deliveries arrive in store for pickup, helping eliminate the worry of leaving packages unattended. New mailbox customers can get three months free[iv] through Dec. 31, 2026; view the coupon and offer details here.
Returns, Minus the Runaround: If a gift is not quite right, participating locations offer speedy, self-service kiosks for eligible online returns using QR codes from participating retailers, as well as pre-labeled and pre-boxed drop-offs. For other eligible returns, The UPS Store locations can help print labels and pack those return items.
"Every holiday has behind-the-scenes work, including getting gifts packed, cards printed, packages received and returns sorted," said Brett Battes, President of The UPS Store, Inc. "Our teams can help handle those logistics, allowing customers to focus on moments that matter most."
Shipping Dates to Circle: Shipping for domestic delivery by Dec. 24? Keep these recommended UPS® ship-by dates in mind. But if it comes down to the last minute, don't worry - it can still get there if shipped by air. The UPS Store network will make sure holiday delight is delivered on time; options and deadlines depend on service and destination.
- Monday, Dec.21, via UPS 3 Day Select® service
